I knit a new pair of socks. The Hermione's Everyday Sock pattern has been in my favourites' for a while and I really enjoyed knitting it. It's very simple, all you have to remember are a few purls every once in a while but they are still more interesting than just plain stockinette and I like the waffle effect.
I got this yarn for my birthday last year and didn't really know what to use it for. Now I used two of the three skeins for these slightly thicker socks (the yarn is sports weight) and they turned out really comfortable and squishy. The colours are not what I would usually choose but I think socks can be as wild as they want, because most of the time they are hidden and when you see them it's only a glimpse...
Lovely! I really need to give this pattern a try. Everyone who has made it has shown such great photos of the finished work.
ReplyDeleteI am pretty sure I'll use it again. It's not too busy but there is a bit of movement in the fabric.
DeleteAbsolutely perfect!! Love how the stitch pattern is mixing perfectly with the yarn colors!
ReplyDeleteThe pattern also gives them a certain thickness which is really comfortable to wear.
DeleteI love having wild and crazy socks! Like you said you only have a glimpse, it also makes me feel like I have a secret:) -Sierra
ReplyDeletethese kind of secrets are cool, aren't they ;-)
